CURRENT MISSION

An outdoor sports enthusiast living in a great city!

ABOUT ME

A keen sportsman, especially with surfing, climbing, skiing, mountain biking and hiking.

Spent 5 years working away from Scotland but now back in Edinburgh and loving it!

PHILOSOPHY

Better to regret something you have done than something you haven't......and, better to ask for forgiveness than permission!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Former ski instructor and outdoor instructor. I spent a few years taking expeditions to S. America, Europe, etc and have also worked in N. America.

These days I work during the week then play all weekend, ideally sat at my desk on Monday with my body sore from playing outdoors over the weekend!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met many really good people through my flatmate hosting couch surfers so thought that I would register too.

I have travelled extensively around the world, either cycling, hiking, skiing or other and know that meeting local people makes the experience so much better.
